"Nick G. Is professional, punctual and friendly. I had a leak coming from the kitchen sink and draining to my basement. This leak would have rotted the floor and caused considerable damage. Upon discovering this , I contacted my son, Clint Ehman, an electrician for Hoffman, to get a referral . Nick G. came out today, diagnosed the problem and fixed it. Nick fixed the problem and made my day so much better. The cost was fair and the work he did is exceptional. A shout out to a job well done. We will recommend Nick G. to family and friends."

"First time using HomeAdvisor and was not disappointed. Chris was friendly, professional, efficient. Any questions I had were answered and the work was thorough. Definitely recommend Sewer-Oscapy if you’re looking to have your drain scoped and cleared."

"Performance Plumbing provided professional and prompt service. They quickly assessed the issue, provided an upfront quote, completed the work (cleared a clog in the sewer line between the house and the main, then cleared another clog in the internal line leading from the kitchen), and charged exactly what they had quoted. I would definitely use them again. Thank you, Jesse and Drew!"

"Mike did a great job analyzing why our kitchen sinks had stopped draining. He looked at the pipes in the basement before deciding to run his auger through the pipes under the sink. He found two blockages. He did a great job explaining how to maintain the pipes to keep this from happening again. We will use MDM for all our plumbing needs from now on."

"We bought a century-old house (3 stories, 1800 sq ft) that had been neglected for a while prior to our purchase. Al from Sol's quoted us a good price and said it would probably take him 3-4 hours with help from an employee. After getting into the project, Al realized that the vents were much dirtier than he thought (some of the dirtiest he's ever seen). He ended up staying for 8 hours with a helper to not only finish the job, but do a thorough job without cutting any corners. They took apart the furnace to clean the coils, took of the heat registers to clean them, made everything look brand new. I was so impressed with their dedication I gave them a little extra money for all of the effort and called Al to come back and do some minor repairs around the house. It's really rare to find people who take such pride in their work. All they asked in return for their extra effort was that I give them some good recommendations, which I am happy to do. I highly recommend Sol's."

FAQs for drain clog or blockage clearing projects in Cottage Hills, IL

Snaking a simple clog near a tub, toilet, or sink often takes about five minutes. Deeper blockages along the main line can stretch the job to a few hours because the pro must feed extra cable and may need a camera to confirm the pipe is clear. Either way, specialized tools help pros work quickly and keep your drains running for the long haul.

Aggressive snaking can scratch pipes, push debris deeper, or even crack older lines. That risk is low with an experienced plumber who matches the cable size to the pipe and eases the snake through bends instead of forcing it. If you’re unsure of your technique—or your pipes are already fragile—calling a licensed pro is the safest, and often cheapest, move.

Start with simple barriers: mesh screens on every tub, shower, and sink keep hair, food bits, and jewelry out of the pipes. Skip harsh chemicals; a monthly flush with hot (not boiling) water clears light buildup without damaging plastic lines. Finally, practice smart disposal—no grease, wipes, or kitty litter down the drain—and schedule routine cleanings if you have older plumbing.

Roto‑Rooter typically charges a flat $160 to $450 for standard snaking, which may include a quick sewer inspection and basic clean‑out. Exact pricing depends on the clog’s location and complexity. Repairs or part replacements fall outside that flat fee, so ask for a line‑item estimate if your tech spots broken pipe sections or recommends additional work.

Most liquid cleaners rely on caustic chemicals that eat through hair and grime—but they also erode metal and even some plastics over time. Repeated use strips protective pipe coatings and can leave you with leaks or premature failures. If hot water or a plunger doesn’t help, call a plumber for mechanical removal instead of pouring more chemicals down the line.
